21st birthday

So my 21st is coming up and I'm still breastfeeding. I may go downtown with a friend and have a few drinks. Just wondering how long it takes alcohol to leave breastmilk? Not planning on going crazy but since it's my 21st it may happen. I've been pumping since I've had her so she could still get breastmilk.

Alcohol metabolizes out of your breastmilk same as it does out of your blood. 1 beer/ 1oz liquor / 6 oz of wine per hour. They make test strips for testing alcohol in breastmilk if you want to be double sure.
